Mobile devices are networked to servers using connections. The connections are monitored to select one or more connections as the active connection. Information from applications is aggregated and transmitted across the active connection in order to network the mobile devices to the servers.

Network communication

Communicating over a network includes establishing a communication path between a mobile-device in a first communication area and a server through a home-agent, and maintaining the communication path through the home agent when the mobile-device moves to a second-communication-area.

Roaming in a communication network

Maintaining a reliable link includes altering a record of information transmitted across a network from a mobile unit to a destination based on an acknowledgment by the destination of receipt of the transmitted information and transmitting information from the mobile unit to the destination based on the record after the mobile unit establishes a new interface connection to the destination.

Maintaining a reliable link

Processing Internet Protocol security (IPsec) traffic includes determining at a first location if a classification parameter is available for the IPsec traffic that indicates a route for the IPsec traffic and forwarding the IPsec traffic based on the classification parameter. If a classification parameter is not available, processing IPsec traffic includes decrypting the IPsec traffic at a second location if the IPsec traffic is encrypted and determining the classification parameter for the IPsec traffic at the second location.

Processing internet protocol security traffic

Web server operations are off loaded to a network interface device, such as a network interface card. The device includes a physical interface to interconnect a network and a web server, and a storage mechanism for web content provided by the web server. The device is capable of independent provision of web content, such as frequently requested content of web pages, thus reducing load on the web server and its storage mechanism. Additional new elements and operations for a network interface device, and a web server system in which it operates, are also described.
